    Prep: Hot shower
    Brush: Shavemac D01 knot
    Razor: Hachiken
    Soap: Castle Forbes, Limes
    Strops: Neil Miller
    Result: Very, very clean

    This razor's a brutal shaver, very good, but if you use the slightest pressure you'll come to close ... This Shavemac was perfect for the Castle F cream and face lathering, very nice shave!

    THURSDAY

    Hot shower prep
    Razor: Torrey 9/16ths +
    Soap: C.O. Bigelow
    Mug: Soup Cup
    Brush: generic black badger
    Aftershock:none
    Splash: Walgreen’s Bay Rum (NOS)

    I decided to do a bit of work recently and the Torrey, of good, if bumpy, steel and no pants, was a good candidate. A chip on the toe required a bit of rework and the scales were fun!
    The shave? Very smooth but the edge is not quite tweaked yet. The other players performed with their usual teamwork and protected my face!


    The fun of trying things makes the day go a bit better and quicker!

    I did some honing this week so i decided to run my OCD razor over a few different stones. I took out my Dragon's tongue and Llyn Melynllyn. Then across my welsh thuri. A very smooth plesant shave. BBS in 2 passes. I dont think she needs any more.

    I was able to uber my Vetiver thanks to Bill pointing me twords a Vetiver soap. A HIGH CLASS shave indeed.
